Abstract

Example embodiments disclosed herein relate to determining video to play based on audio. Videos associated with the audio are determined. One of the videos to play with the audio is determined based on analysis.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A method of a computer, comprising:
 selecting audio for playback; 
 determining a plurality of streaming video media associated with the selected audio based on use of a site crawler, wherein each of the plurality of streaming video media is associated with linguistic content; 
 determining a given streaming video media of the plurality of streaming video media to play with the selected audio based on a linguistic analysis of the linguistic content and a user history including feedback by a user; 
 scoring each of the plurality of streaming video media based on the linguistic analysis and the feedback, wherein the determining of the given streaming video media is based on the scoring; 
 receiving additional feedback about the given streaming video media, 
 wherein the additional feedback is used to train the linguistic analysis to score the linguistic content respectively associated with the given streaming video media. 
 
     
     
       2. The method of  claim 1 , wherein the given streaming video media includes embedded audio that is muted while the selected audio is played. 
     
     
       3. The method of  claim 1 , wherein the linguistic content includes at least one of: a tag, a comment, author information, a number of views, viewer demographics, an artist, an album, a genre, and feedback. 
     
     
       4. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising:
 providing access to the given streaming video media during playback of the selected audio. 
 
     
     
       5. A method of a computer, comprising:
 selecting audio for playback; 
 determining a plurality of streaming video media associated with the selected audio based on use of a site crawler, wherein each of the plurality of streaming video media is associated with linguistic content; and 
 determining a given streaming video media of the plurality of streaming video media to play with the selected audio based on a linguistic analysis of the linguistic content and a user history, wherein the determining of the given streaming video media is based, at least in part, on comparing audible content of the given streaming video media with the selected audio. 
 
     
     
       6. The method of  claim 5 , wherein the user history includes feedback by the user. 
     
     
       7. A computing system comprising:
 at least one processor; 
 an audio selector to select audio associated with a user; 
 a web crawler to determine a plurality of streaming videos associated with the selected audio, wherein the streaming videos are respectively associated with one or more attributes; 
 a scoring module to perform a statistical analysis on the one or more attributes to score each of the streaming videos based, at least in part, on feedback of the user; 
 an analysis module to determine a given streaming video of the streaming videos to play with the selected audio based on the respective scores; 
 a feedback module to receive additional feedback about the given streaming video from the user, 
 wherein the audio selector is to select a second audio associated with the user, 
 wherein the web crawler is to search for a plurality of second streaming videos associated with the selected second audio, wherein the second streaming videos are respectively associated with one or more second attributes, 
 wherein the scoring module is to score each of the second streaming videos based on the feedback and the additional feedback, and 
 wherein the analysis module is to determine one of the second streaming videos to play with the selected second audio based on the respective scores of the second streaming videos, 
 wherein the audio selector, the web crawler, the scoring module, the analysis module, and the feedback module are executable on the at least one processor. 
 
     
     
       8. The computing system of  claim 7 , wherein the one or more attributes include at least one of: a tag, a comment, author information, a number of views, and viewer demographics. 
     
     
       9. A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium storing instructions that, if executed by at least one processor of a device, cause the at least one processor to:
 select audio to playback based on a playlist of a user account; 
 search for a plurality of video files associated with the selected audio, wherein the video files are respectively associated with one or more attributes; 
 score the video files based on analysis of the respective one or more attributes by an analysis module, wherein the scoring is based, at least in part, on user feedback associated with the user account; 
 determine a given video file of the video files to play with the selected audio during playback of the selected audio based on the scoring; 
 provide access to the given video file; 
 receive additional feedback about the given video file; and 
 train the analysis module using the additional feedback. 
 
     
     
       10. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of  claim 9 , wherein the video files include streaming video files. 
     
     
       11. The non-transitory machine-readable storage medium of  claim 9 , wherein the one or more attributes include a plurality of words included on respective web pages associated with the respective video files.
